laravel 5.2 cant pass variable to view

I have a very simple controller and view. But for some reason I am unable to pass a variable to my view. Note that echo $project->title inside the router works.

Controller:

<?php

namespace AppHttpControllers;

use AppHttpRequests;
use IlluminateHttpRequest;
use Auth;
class HomeController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Create a new controller instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->middleware('auth');
    }

    /**
     * Show the application dashboard.
     *
     * @return IlluminateHttpResponse
     */
    public function index()
    {
        $project = AppProjects::find(1);
        return view('home', $project);
    }

}

View:

        <div class="panel-body">
            You are logged in!
            {{ $project->title }}
        </div>

But for some reason I keep getting this error:

Answer

The data sent to the view needs to be an associative array. Use this instead:

return view('home', ['project' => $project]);
